So hard to watch her try to hold on😞...the most beautiful T , imho
Yea that part fucked me up:(
@libsareshitstains ! we know they weren’t...but she doesn’t know that. All she knows is that her children were stolen by a predator and that she wasn’t strong enough to protect them.
@@zeynabuthman639 Instict tells it to do protect it and the same instinct may tell it to eat the eggs.
Yes she was holding until he tired her out good thing Dave is a good man he’s gonna take care of her and the babies
@@zeynabuthman639 you're giving it human emotions. It's acting purely on instinct, like a computer. The second it removes it's leg from the egg sack it has no knowledge of it's offsprings existence. using the computer analogy, it's loaded up a new program to react to the situation it's currently in. It doesn't have a central brain to think, no memory, no ability to learn, it can only react to changes it detects through it's senses
Nobody's gonna mention how precariously that tank sit's uneven on the edge...biting my nails on that! Your spiders are stunners
Im a newbie in this hobby,i found this channel is very clear,educative and personal. Love it, love to see more content from you good sir. The enclosure setup everything is spot on.
Thank you wan, and welcome to our channel 👍❤️
She deffo looks well and I love your enclosures they look so natural , well done momma feed up and have a rest now ....
Yes she can relax now for a little while 😂👍
Awwww how she fought for her babies😭😭😭😭🤗
The amount of information ive gotten from your channel is amazing! Your channel is definitely one of the main reasons ive seen the success I have when keeping tarantulas (and even my other inverts too) especially when it comes to enclosures, having a natural setup(like most of yours) looks both amazing and makes the tarantulas much more comfortable. I cant remember the last time ive had a T bolt out of an enclosure when doing maintenance, always straight into their hides/burrows. Keep up the great work dave!
Thank you so much for your kind words and im so happy that my methods have proved helpful for others to use with there animals and spiders , thanks for your support my friend and I hope you continue to enjoy our channel 👍❤️
I agree! I have learned how to rehouse properly & patiently! And I just love, and now say, how you say “Absolutely Stunning!” Hahaha 👍
amazing looking spider--the colour of the strong yellow on the legs-- brilliant.. love your knowledge and the way you and the amazing camera lady present it--thanks PROFF
Cheers Graeme appreciate it 👍
As a non hobbyist what a wonderful informative video
With crackin camera work too boot
I cant wait for the next informative video
Regards from newtongrange scotland
Hello my friend and welcome to our channel I hope you find it entertaining and interesting 👍
wow, i've never seen a tug-o-war with a tarantula before. time well spent!
Such beautiful creatures. When I’m having a not so great day it is very soothing and calming to observe all the different species. Thank you Dave and camera lady💘 ve
❤️❤️❤️❤️
I liked the music when you showed her walking around. 👍 Also, just found out my T. Albopilosus female is MATURE! Woohoo! I'm so excited :)
Great video! So much info packed in there. Thanks Dave 😊
Thanks for watching
Love the videos Dave. But watching you pull that bark back with your fingers gave me the chills my striata is feisty 😂😂😂
😂😂 Im always watching them very closely and I know what I can get away with most of the time 😂😂👍
Hi Dave,
I'm so excited I'm getting one of your Regalis Slings from Nick. The wee cutie will be my first Old World x
Thats great Laura, im sure you will find it very rewarding out of all the pokies the regalis is the most forgiving 👍
I'm doing lots of research about their care x
@@lauraclegg794 There very straight forward if I can be of any help you can message me on Facebook facebook.com/Daveslittlebeasties/
Another very beautiful and calm pokie, all yours are stunning and very sweet! Lovely enclosure too. Really interesting and informative video, thank you.
Thanks for watching .
She was in great nick and all the 'eggs with legs' were healthy. Says a lot about the husbandry. Awesome.
Where can we buy your slings and so on?
Thanks bob I put them up on face book these are ready to go now mate facebook.com/Daveslittlebeasties/ message through messenger mate 👍
For the babies that is such a good idea!! I'm totally going to use this method in the future.
It really is a one stop pot I never have to do anything with it until I remove the slings .
I felt sad for the mother trying desperately to keep hold of her eggs.
bit of a tug-a-war there. she's like "give it back there mine" lol
She is striking. Such subtle colors
She is so pretty!
5:42
She looks defeated 🥺
I find P. Regalis to be amongst the calmest and least defensive of the old world tarantulas despite its impressive size and intimidating colors. Never had a threat posture or any jump scares out of my mature female I’ve had since 2n.
Wow, the coloring on this spider is amazing!
It really is!
Cheers for the new video!
Your very welcome 👍
🥰those are the cutest!❤️
Omg that yellow
It's rather suprising to see a spider defend it's offspring, in a good way.
What a nice eggsack! And Mum is looking stunning as well :)
Thank you there was 139 babies a good sack 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties I'm happy for you! So good to see that there was not a single bad one :) I hope you'll keep us updated on the slings!
@@UntoteLady there will be a video soon 👍
That was surprisingly touching to watch her try to hang onto her egg sack.. The star of my collection is an adult fenale P. Regalis.. I hope to find breed her soon.
I have learned so much from you Mr.Dave, I thank you for all the wonderful info. I now have a viable egg sack with my Wolfspider.
Well done my friend and good luck 👍
Congrats ... Keep them coming
We will try 😂👍
Thank you.
Hey, Dave. You should take a look at the app ExotiKeeper. Save on those Dymo cartridges. Just print out a number and keep all the details on the app.
I will look into it thanks mate 👍
Dave, excellent timing on this video. My Poecilotheria regalis girl laid a sack for me on February 18, 2021 after a 7 month gestation as well. I was planning on pulling the sack at 35 days, but now I’m wondering if I should wait. My snake/spider room stays between 81-84 degrees. What are your thoughts?
Congratulations Daniel, I would wait until 40 days maybe if all is well with the female , its always a risk leaving them in there but I think its worth it for better stronger slings , idealy you'dont want them any earlier than eggs with legs the older the better ,👍
Oh Dave you meanie you, even though it had to be done I still had to call you a meanie rofl.
Do you use regular tap water or bottled/filtered water? Do you add anytbing to the water like vitamins that will be soaked up thru there soft exoskeleton or anything complicated like that? Just curiosity
Just regular tap. water thats been left to stand for 24hrs 👍
Really enjoying your channel Dave.
Glad you enjoy it!
At first I felt sorry for her for being 'robbed off' her eggs, but then I remembered that she could just go and nom on her babies if she's in the mood for it, so yeah😅 now they're safe👌🏻
Amazing
Thank you! Cheers!
Really great looking spider ..... doesn't the female spider feel bad that her babies are taken away??
Their maternal instinct is very short lived as soon as the sack is gone she will feed and forget all about it 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties oh cool
This is definitely my favourite of all your spiders - maybe because I'm from India?
lucky man .... i tried to took a sack from my P. Ornata years ago ... that what was a complete nightmare :)
They dont always want to give them up 😂😂👍
watch out dave before them face huggers jump out at you. 😂
She was heartbroken when he took her egg sac. She wasn’t shy she was depressed!
They are not emotional my friend
So sad. She was fighting so hard to hold on to her babies.
She very quickly got over it and fed almost at once .
Does the mother spider sometimes eat her children?
Yes sometimes they. do 👍
You are brave, taking that egg sack. I can't help feeling bad for mama - your video of the mama spider with her babies on her back was so beautiful and others with mama surrounded by her little ones were great too. I just couldn't take those babies.
In some instances its best to remove 👍
Some times they eat there babies if I’m correct right ??
Hi Dave, great videos and beautiful spiders.. any of these Regalis available? Do you have a website?
Hi Don, you can get me on Facebook messenger mate and yes they are available now facebook.com/Daveslittlebeasties/
Tank looks like it’s gonna fall off the desk. Careful
Its perfectly safe 😂👍
I'm wondering have you ever had a problem with the exo terra mesh lids because im thinking some people don't like them?
I have not had any issues myself 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties thanks so much an invaluable answer that mate.
it is heartbreaking to see them being removed but it has to be done.
This is so hard to do !!! We have never pulled a sack from a mother as we usually allow mother to incubate ...but we pulled from our avic and it made me feel like a ....giant jerk !
Yes some I leave and some I remove , some are poor mothers and will destroy an egg sack right near the end of incubation .
Poecilotheria regalis was my second spider ...my was a real beast...very large...are u not afraid of her jumping?
No she is well behaved 😂😂👍
I see that many of your spiders have very striking color schemes. But doesn't this make it easier for predators to catch them?
Its the way they are built 😂👍
No no nooooo…you can’t have my babies!
Why do you take the eggsack away? I've seen other videos where the slings hatch with the mom, though it looked difficult to get them out after
Sometimes its safer to remove as some have been known to eat the sacks at the last moment 👍
She didn't want to give up her eggs.And people say that they don't have intelligence.
Instinct is a powerful thing 👍
Yep, like Dave said, its pure instinct Daniel, spiders cant think like we do, we have a huge brain they dont. Theres a few spider species out there that when the slings hatch at moms home, the slings move about, if they move out of moms sight and literally a few seconds later come back, she might attack it seeing it as a snack.
@@Sarge80 Exactly, seeing it as a snack or threat! Also after 6 months should be ready to eat!. Awesome video!
Hi, how long did you leave the bag of eggs with your mother? from the day of laying until removal?
Around 30-35 days
@@daveslittlebeasties thank's
Damn that heartbreaking to watch you take those babies from their mother
She is not maternal like us and will forget almost at once and feed and drink 👍
How many adult spiders do you own, Dave?
Im not sure well over 100 😂👍
This is why I will not breed them. I could not take the eggs but I know leaving them with some species causes issues.
Anyone else’s anxiety playing up with the tank perched on the end of the table?! 😱😂
😂😂😂😂❤
God as he was talking moving his arms around I pictured it crashing down onto the floor 😱😭 how horrible that would have been
@@DoorsToHideBehind156 Its not happened yet my friend ❤
I always feel sad watching that.
Me too! I was wondering if anyone else did. Poor tarantula! :-(
@@lynnettecook6973 Yes.
No need to feel sad my friend as soon as they disperse she forgets all about them very quickly👍❤️
She really fought for it too! That was breaking my heart.
I don't know about spider's feelings but I feel kinda sad for her when she loses her egg sack. Beautiful spider indeed, nicely shot as well!
There maternal instincts said very soon after the sack is removed almost instantly 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties interesting!
You could tell the spider was DEVASTATED when she lost the egg. It was like she lost the will fight and live. Poor thing...but she's still a very spoiled and well cared for spider.
Her maternal instinct is very low once the sack is gone she reverts back to hunting and feeding very quickly 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties yeah, I can tell she's in great hands with you. You have great videos.
Just broke my ❤heart to watch her fight for her babies.
I know that you treat your spiders with the up most respect..However, that particular part just gets too me.
"AND YES!" I'm a big-titty baby! 🤪
Your channel has taught me and my family so much.
Thank you!
You setting the enclosures on the corner of the table makes me as nervous as a long-tailed cat in a roomful of rocking chairs!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh, poor mama, you did a good job. 💖
She fought so hard to hold onto her babies..
Why are the comments always filled with people who don’t understand anything about spiders, constantly equating human emotions and feelings
some people's empathy is very limited to "what if that were me" when they forget to consider spiders have different instincts, thought processes, etc. Female tarantulas would often eat males so it's really unfair to compare their morals/emotions to ours.
Does it not break your heart taking her babies away from her
No its all part of the breeding they would have dispersed soon enough and she would have offered no parental care 👍
I've kept a few species of T before but am starting to get into the hobby a bit more seriously. I can only aspire to have the skill level you possess. Your videos are great and watching you work is always a pleasure. Keep up the great work!!
Thank you my friend im glad your enjoying the content 👍
underrated channel
Very nice of you to say ❤️
Awwwww such a good mumma. She didn’t want to give up her babies 😭😭
Used to have a male and a female, both were adults.
I originally thought I had two females but the person I bought them from didn't gender them properly.
I was still fresh to the experience of owning Tarantulas but I did my research on how to care for the species I've gotten, I had not planned on mating them but they were both adults and it would've been a missed opportunity I carefully have been watching videos on how to do everything right and prepare.
Tragically though not long after we had a house fire disaster which lead to them parishing. It was sad because I've been taking care of them for a year in good condition and I was very excited to pair them and get little slings.
That is so sad ❤️ but dont let it stop you try again and good luck my friend ❤️👍
Man what a stunning Regalis and good mother at that. Poor girl didn't want to let go of that egg sac. Gl on the babies!
Thanks matey she is a good mum and a lovely spider I raised her from a sling 👍
She looks a bit disappointed after losing the egg sac ...
As an extremely clumsy person you perching your cages on the corner of the table like that gives me anxiety.
I searched the comments to find this. Yes I was freaking out waiting for it to get knocked too.
Egg with legs...I have never seen inside a spiders eggsack before but it was really interesting! Mother spider was for sure a beautiful spider. I was afraid of spiders before but i had to care for my sons pet spider Luni ( Grammostola Rosea ) and I was so afraid of her in the beginning so i hardly could watch her without having shivers down my spine and wanted to run away! I have learnt a lot since then and I really enjoyed Luni. She was a kind and curious spider 🕷 and it seemed like she love our company. She was a fuzzy eater ( but I know that that is common fact for them ) she was healthy and did well and she moulted about 3 times in our care. She was always so shiny looking afterwards. She learnt me something and today I don't scream and run away for a spider anymore. Luni lives with my son now and she must be around 20 years old. She had a owner prior to my son too. She lived through a house fire too last year in June. Ok no smoke went in to the room and we was able to get her out from our apartment the next day too. We have to run out in the middle of the night in a big hurry with our 2 cats when an arsonist but fire on the attic...it was really heartbreaking to leave Luni behind not knowing if she would survive, but she did! Thank you so very much for showing us this interesting video and I watched the one with unboxing the slings into a new enclosure too. Very nice, thank you! Hugs, Susanne.
Thank you Susan im so glad your enjoying the videos makes me very happy 👍❤️
@@daveslittlebeasties Yes they where great both videos Dave. I will watch more of your videos too, so thank you in advance! Hugs, Susanne.
Man i get nervous when he has the enclosure sitting on the corner halfway hanging out.
Me too! And when a door is left open. Dave and camera Lady are always in control though!
Its very safe and cant fall off its very secure 👍😂
@@bobfor4868 We are very relaxed the door being open is very safe we are watching all the time 😂😂😂👍
Poor thing 😢
But it's for the best
Absolutely fascinating!!! I did feel sorry when she wouldn't let her babies go ❤ gorgeous girly!! Thank you 😊
Thanks Susan once its gone they forget almost instantly and will feed 👍
@@daveslittlebeasties learning so much about ts thanks to your videos, I could watch for hours 😍
I am arachnophobic and just watching you care for and love your spiders and their babies...relaxes me. Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤🕷🕷🕸
Welcome my friend ❤️👍
I`m also arachnophobic so I guess i`m hear for the same reasons
I truly enjoy your love and admiration for these fascinating vilified creatures. Also interesting to see the evolution of the Beastie Room. You do have a very spiffy setup. Obviously you have learned just what works best for you and the kiddies. Thanks to Video Lady as well--great camera work.
Glad you enjoyed it
Never thought I would say this about a spider but she walks with absolute grace and beauty! 🥰
Mamma fought so very hard for her babies :(
Awh god she really Didn wanna let go of her babies. Absolutely stunning girl ❣️🕷 and did we get a little glimpse of camera lady in the reflection of the tank when the spider was Comin up the back of the cork haha :)
Yes you did she was a little miffed about that 😂😂
Great video as always Dave. Although my heart was in my mouth when you balanced that tank on the end of the table lol. My 9 year old is petrified of my p.regalis even though she's never near it, so I've suggested she watch your videos :)
Thats a good shout hopefully she will see theres nothing to be afraid of, and the tank was very secure no fear of it falling off 😂😂👍
I was thinking the same! Omg that made me nervous.
facehuggers.....so beautiful....and such a tender touch young man. Good camera work as always.
I'm afraid of spiders but completely fascinating and beautiful at the same time. I love your channel it has made me appreciate them more though I wouldn't be in the same room as one! You take such good care of these animals and your wife does some great camera work too.
Wow...the yellow on the underside of her legs is gorgeous!
Fabulous set up Dave, homemade SCBU . (special care baby unit) 😂 👍💕
Great video Dave and very informative, and what a beautiful species, brilliant.
She is lovely George and as pokies go the regalis is one of the best 👍
Poor baby does not want to give her babys up
I love your choice in back ground music. Calm and gentle, instead of raging metal or horror music. It fits the beauty of these beasties so much better!
Fantastic video. Absolutely beautiful girl, would love one of these 🥰 love the channel, keep up the amazing work guys 🤍
She is stunning Dave! Is this the same female my sling came from last week 🤔 and I'm also wondering what size Exo that is?
Yes mate it is 👍
My anxiety level as that enclosure teetered on the corner of your table. 😬
I watch several different forms on TH-cam and your tarantula form popped up on my TH-cam feed. This is so amazing. I've been watching for 2 days and never knew all that you're showing. I didn't even know that you could breed spiders. I am amazed and I love this channel. You have a beautiful collection and you farm your spiders so well. I love a good farm and you have a fantastic Farm
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great video 😊 she is a beautiful tarantula!!
Thank you 👍
